1. A computer-implemented system for monitoring an asset, comprising:
- one or more asset-monitoring module for monitoring the asset and providing monitored data; and
a processing device receiving the monitored data and running a data analysis algorithm, wherein said data analysis algorithm constructs a statistical model of performance for one or more assets to be monitored, constructs a degradation model for the one or more assets that predicts maintenance requirements and off-line statuses for said assets, and applies Bayesian updating to perform real-time corrections in the statistical and degradation models;
wherein the system is asset-agnostic, supporting multiple types and brands of assets and such that the performance of the one or more assets can be managed and monitored in real-time.

Abstract
Systems and methods for asset monitoring utilize a network, one or more data servers, one or more asset-monitoring modules, and one or more beacon modules to monitor assets deployed across a facility. The systems and methods are asset-agnostic and are able to provide statistical forecasts and degradation model for each asset monitored. The systems and methods may further apply real-time regression, including Bayesian updating techniques to provide real-time corrections to forecasts and degradation models.

15. A method for detecting asset location comprising the steps of:
-
detecting, at a first asset-monitoring module, the altitude of a first asset; detecting, at a second asset-monitoring module, the altitude of a second asset; comparing the altitude of the altitude of the first asset against the altitude of the second asset; comparing the altitude of the altitude of the first asset against the altitude of a beacon module; and comparing the altitude of the altitude of the second asset against the altitude of a beacon module; wherein, the results of the comparisons are used to determine the floor on which the first and second assets reside.

16. A computer-implemented system for monitoring one or more assets, comprising:
-
one or more asset-monitoring module for monitoring the asset and providing monitored data comprising current and voltage data; and a processing device receiving the monitored data and running a data analysis algorithm, wherein said data analysis algorithm constructs a statistical model of performance for one or more assets to be monitored, wherein said model predicts the current mode of operation of the asset; wherein the system is asset-agnostic, supporting multiple types and brands of assets and such that the performance of the one or more assets can be managed and monitored in real-time.
